An expert discusses how monitoring capillary leakage syndrome (CLS) requires vigilant assessment of fluid balance, hemodynamics, and biomarkers. Academic settings may have advanced resources, whereas community settings rely on standardized protocols. Key adverse effects include hypotension, edema, and organ dysfunction. Management includes fluid resuscitation, vasopressors, and close monitoring.

An expert discusses how, for younger/fitter patients with blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDCN), treatment selection as a bridge to transplant is based on efficacy, toxicity, and response depth. Patient-specific (age, comorbidities) and systemic (drug access, center expertise) factors guide decisions. Emerging real-world evidence, such as Berning et al (ASH 2024), highlights CD123-targeted therapy’s role in optimizing response rates before allogeneic stem cell transplantation (allo-SCT).

An expert discusses how, for advanced unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC), clinicians monitor treatment efficacy through imaging, α-fetoprotein levels, and tolerability. Treatment decisions are guided by response assessment, adverse events, and liver function. First-line (1L) options include tyrosine kinase inhibitors and immunotherapy combinations, with promising trials exploring novel immune combinations and targeted approaches that may reshape the treatment landscape.

Panelists discuss how emerging evidence suggests that combining transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) with systemic therapy could redefine the standard of care for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Trial outcomes may drive shifts toward more personalized locoregional approaches. However, challenges in implementation include optimizing patient selection, managing toxicity, and ensuring multidisciplinary coordination.

Panelists discuss how the role of systemic therapy in intermediate-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is evolving with combinations like immunotherapy and targeted agents enhancing locoregional treatment. LEAP-012 and EMERALD-1 evaluate lenvatinib + pembrolizumab and durvalumab-based regimens with transarterial chemoembolization (TACE), respectively. Their findings may redefine treatment paradigms, improving outcomes and expanding therapeutic options.

An expert discusses how in the first-line (1L) treatment of advanced unresectable hepatocellular carcinoma (uHCC) with tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) such as lenvatinib or sorafenib, proactive adverse event (AE) management is crucial. This includes baseline assessment; regular monitoring of adverse effects such as hypertension, hand-foot syndrome, and fatigue; and implementing preventive strategies. Treatment should be individualized with dose modifications as needed to balance therapeutic efficacy with quality of life, particularly given the advanced disease state.

An expert discusses how the availability of subcutaneous (SC) immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) for bladder cancer impacts treatment selection by offering improved convenience and accessibility, particularly in advanced/metastatic and perioperative settings. SC formulations may reduce costs, time, and patient burden while enhancing treatment compliance and follow-up.
